Wren Finished
Hi, here is my Carolina Wren with the Red trumpet vine. I've used the vines to help your eyes go to the wren and seed pod. I also dropped some of the same Cadmium Red that I used to paint the flowers into the bird to highlight him.
This is from my flower patch in my backyard, forgive the weeds. They are just frothy background ( ha ha). Now I was surprised to see the stargazer lily blooming! I forgot I'd planted it. It's gorgeous!
well take care and have a wonderful weekend. Happy Fourth of July!
Talk to you soon,Diana
The art show continues until July 6Th at the Red Queen to see more photos of it -scroll down and hit "older posts". Thank you!
I just added a swirl of burnt sienna to the top right corner of the painting. This helps bring your eye back down to the focal point. I thought it needed it.!!
I've seen the finished painting . It's gorgeous and just what I've come to expect from you ..
ReplyDeleteThe Carolina wren is the same kind that came and made a nest in my Staghorn fern, I posted on my Journey blog.. they are so funny.
